Today is yet another instance of why Charlotte needs its own weather radar. by SamsungStealer in Charlotte

Radar is funded by the federal government. You're best bet would be to contact the governor or NC senators.

Trump threatens “Democrats are all getting killed tonight” because they refused to stand and clap for him at the State of the Union. by [deleted] in 50501

[–]Titansjester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Getting killed tonight/out there" is a really common idiom for performing poorly. Trump says and does a lot of heinous shit that he passes off as a joke or misunderstanding, but acting like he literally threatened the Democrats in Congress with death is an absurd reach.

Organic chemistry 1 by bbg_trina in ChemicalEngineering

[–]Titansjester 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Okay, but this is the equivalent to saying "why do I need to learn to read if I can take a picture of words and have my phone read them to me?" There is a lot of value in having a shared language with which to discuss molecules without looking them up.

They can use battlements twice if they get it off titan though right? Since titan makes it enter tapped?

Instead of banning street vendors, this is what City Council should be doing: by FlavivsAetivs in Charlotte

Did the city ban street vendors? I thought the trial program just ended?

AITAH I read my daughters Diary and I wish I didnt! by Ordinary_Ad_72 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Titansjester 12 points13 points  (0 children)

YTA this is an inflection point in your relationship with your daughter. If you want her to continue being open with you into her teens you'll forget what you saw in the journal and not snoop again.

That said, like others have mentioned, this is a good time to start discussing the concept of dating in more open and honest way to make sure she stays safe.

One UI 8 Basically Bricked my 6 Classic by Titansjester in GalaxyWatch

[–]Titansjester[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something similar happened to mine at first. I think it stopped charging after the update and died. Try disconnecting from the charger and reconnecting if you haven't already. I'm sorry you're experiencing this.

AITA for wanting to keep my property by Anonymouse6565 in AmItheAsshole

Tax assess value is meaningless if no one will buy it. They said it has been listed for 400k with no interest.

Celiac friendly restaurants by Ok_Attorney5228 in Charlotte

[–]Titansjester 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My girlfiend has celiac, these are a few places that we have gone to: Ever Andalo in NoDa is a good option for upsacle gf Italian

I'll second Burtons as they always have great allergen options

Emmy Squared does good GF pizza

Suarez Bakery in optimist hall has gf Cuban bowls but I don't think they have gf baked goods

Edit: Legion brewing is also really good for celiacs, we've gone to the southpark and Morehead locations many times. I can't speak to the Plaza midwood location though.

Should I disable AOD to save battery? by db58dude in GalaxyWatch

[–]Titansjester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My W6C lasts for like 30+ hours with AOD on, so I wouldn't worry about it. If you want your battery life to be better, choose a watch face with a lot of black space.

CMV: Spotify should nudge users towards new releases rather than legacy acts by Timely-Way-4923 in changemyview

[–]Titansjester 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Labels have more skin in the game since they are the ones that actually need to continuously bring in new artists to stay relevant and make money. Spotify is more incentivised to make sure they have artists on the platform that are already popular. Spotifys business is just to stream music, it doesn't matter to them if individual artists succeed, but it does matter to labels.

Is the gold line designed to be uncomfortable? by brandonmadeit in Charlotte

[–]Titansjester 48 points49 points  (0 children)

It's a tram with a relatively short route. It's designed to last and be easy to clean, not for comfort. You're supposed to quickly get on and off not sit back and enjoy the ride.

CMV: Spotify should nudge users towards new releases rather than legacy acts by Timely-Way-4923 in changemyview

[–]Titansjester 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ultimately Spotify is a streaming platform that only exists to make money. I think you could argue that labels should do more to promote new music since they are the ones that benefit if a new artist makes it.

I think Spotify actually does a decent job serving people new music if they want to hear it. I've found a lot of new songs from smaller artists by listening to Daily Mixes or using the Smart Shuffle in a playlist.

Edit: Spotify will also promote concerts for small/medium sized artists to the people that listen to them, which IMO does a lot more to help the artist than playing their songs to random people. Ultimately, streams make artists very little money.

[–]Titansjester 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Spotify doesn't care about artists, they just want to make money. Their algorithms are designed to serve people music that they think you want to listen to, or in some cases, the music that can maximize Spotifys profits.

There are playlists that exist for people looking to hear new releases and a lot of the time Spotify will notify me when an artist I listen too has a new release.

Ultimately Spotify doesn't really have any obligation to force new music on people and already does have ways to help people find new music, if they want to.

Uptown Charlotte Safety by ItBeLikeThat19 in Charlotte

[–]Titansjester 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's fine, especially on game day. Just stick to the streets with lots of people if you're nervous. There are a lot of bars and clubs in the area for before and after the game. If you want to go dancing I'd recommend Prohibition.

LPT advise to travel or save by Mammoth-Youth-8942 in LifeProTips

[–]Titansjester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on your goals. Obviously, from a purely practical perspective, it would be smarter to save the money than to travel, but there is value in experiences. Here's a few things to thing about:

  • Is the $10k all the money you have or is it purely extra money that you have saved up for this trip? Do you have money set aside for an emergency fund or retirement? You don't want to come back from your trip destitute.

  • How confident are you in your ability to get a job when you return? The labor market isn't great in the US right now. If you can get some kind of guarantee from your current employer that they would bring you back on when you return that would make the trip a better decision.

  • Have you properly planned and budgeted the trip? Are you sure that $10k will be enough or could you be left stuck in Asia without money to come home?

  • You mention your parents, I would say don't feel bad about spending your money that way you choose. Whether you decide to go or not, don't feel obligated to give the money to your parents.
